In the first embodiment, the bulging portion 101a is formed at the −Z side end of the connecting pipe main body 101b. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it may be formed at least at a part of the connecting pipe main body 101b.

接続管101の膨出部101aは、例えば、図5に示すように、既存のフレア加工ツール(拡径部材)50を用いて形成される。フレア加工ツール50は、例えば、接続管101を固定するフレアダイス(固定部材)51と、接続管101の端部開口を拡径するフレアコーン(回転押圧部材)52とから構成される。接続管101の膨出部101aを形成する場合、先ず、膨出部101aが形成されていない管部材110を用意する。この管部材110には、上述したナット部材30を、あらかじめ、嵌め込んでおく。次に、管部材110を、フレアダイス51に固定する。詳しくは、このフレアダイス51の貫通孔51aに、管部材110を挿入した上で、クランプ装置等により、径方向に締め付けて、管部材110をフレアダイス51に固定する。なお、このフレアダイス51は、管部材110の−Z側の端部から所定の距離L(頭出し寸法)の位置に配置される。また、フレアダイス51の貫通孔51aの−Z側の開口の縁には、テーパ面51bが形成されている。このテーパ面51bの傾斜角度θ4は、例えば、テーパ面34の傾斜角度θ2の角度にあわせて、45°である。   For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the bulging portion 101 a of the connecting pipe 101 is formed using an existing flare processing tool (diameter expanding member) 50. The flare processing tool 50 includes, for example, a flare die (fixing member) 51 that fixes the connection pipe 101 and a flare cone (rotary pressing member) 52 that expands the end opening of the connection pipe 101. When forming the bulging part 101a of the connecting pipe 101, first, the pipe member 110 in which the bulging part 101a is not formed is prepared. The nut member 30 described above is fitted into the tube member 110 in advance. Next, the pipe member 110 is fixed to the flare die 51. Specifically, the tube member 110 is inserted into the through-hole 51a of the flare die 51, and then tightened in the radial direction by a clamp device or the like to fix the tube member 110 to the flare die 51. The flare die 51 is disposed at a predetermined distance L (cueing dimension) from the −Z side end of the pipe member 110. A tapered surface 51 b is formed at the edge of the opening on the −Z side of the through hole 51 a of the flare die 51. The inclination angle θ4 of the taper surface 51b is, for example, 45 ° in accordance with the inclination angle θ2 of the taper surface 34.

次に、管部材110に、アダプター60を嵌め込む。アダプター60は、フランジ部61が形成された略円柱形状の部材であり、管部材110の−Z側から嵌め込まれる。フランジ部61の+Z側の面には、管部材110の−Z側の端部が当接する。   Next, the adapter 60 is fitted into the pipe member 110. The adapter 60 is a substantially cylindrical member in which the flange portion 61 is formed, and is fitted from the −Z side of the tube member 110. The −Z side end portion of the tube member 110 abuts on the + Z side surface of the flange portion 61.

続いて、図6に示すように、フレア加工ツール50のフレアコーン52を、Z軸回りに回転させつつ、+Z方向に移動させる。フレアコーン52は、アダプター60に対して滑りながら回転する。フレアコーン52を+Z方向に移動させることにより、アダプター60が、管部材110の−Z側の端部を、Z軸方向に圧縮する。圧縮された管部材110の端部は、拡径されるとともに、フレアダイス51のテーパ面51bに拘束されつつ、風船状に膨らむように変形する。この結果、図7に示すように、膨出部101aが形成された接続管101が完成する。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, the flare cone 52 of the flare processing tool 50 is moved in the + Z direction while rotating around the Z axis. The flare cone 52 rotates while sliding with respect to the adapter 60. By moving the flare cone 52 in the + Z direction, the adapter 60 compresses the −Z side end of the tube member 110 in the Z-axis direction. The compressed end of the pipe member 110 is expanded and deformed so as to swell in a balloon shape while being constrained by the tapered surface 51 b of the flare die 51. As a result, as shown in FIG. 7, the connecting pipe 101 in which the bulging portion 101a is formed is completed.

上述のように形成された膨出部101aは、図8に示すように、管継手本体20にナット部材30が螺合されることで、管継手本体20の挿入孔21のテーパ面22と、ナット部材30の挿入孔31のテーパ面34とに、Z軸方向(接続管101の軸方向)に挟まれて固定される。膨出部101aが、Z軸方向に圧縮されつつ、テーパ面22に当接することで、シール部S1(第1シール部)が形成される。同様に、膨出部101aが、Z軸方向に圧縮されつつ、テーパ面34に当接することで、シール部S2(第2シール部)が形成される。また、膨出部101aが、対向するテーパ面22,34に挟まれることで、径方向に少し拡径し、ストレート孔面23にも当接する。膨出部101aが、ストレート孔面23にも当接することで、シール部S4(第4シール部)が形成される。   As shown in FIG. 8, the bulging portion 101 a formed as described above has a tapered surface 22 of the insertion hole 21 of the pipe joint body 20 by screwing the nut member 30 into the pipe joint body 20. The nut member 30 is fixed to the tapered surface 34 of the insertion hole 31 of the nut member 30 by being sandwiched in the Z-axis direction (the axial direction of the connecting pipe 101). The bulging portion 101a abuts on the tapered surface 22 while being compressed in the Z-axis direction, whereby the seal portion S1 (first seal portion) is formed. Similarly, the bulging portion 101a is compressed in the Z-axis direction and abuts against the tapered surface 34, whereby the seal portion S2 (second seal portion) is formed. Further, the bulging portion 101 a is sandwiched between the opposing tapered surfaces 22 and 34, so that the diameter is slightly increased in the radial direction, and also comes into contact with the straight hole surface 23. The bulging part 101a also contacts the straight hole surface 23, whereby a seal part S4 (fourth seal part) is formed.

また、管継手本体20にナット部材30が螺合されることで、ナット部材30の挿入孔31のテーパ面34が、管継手本体20の端面のテーパ面24に接合される。これにより、シール部S3(第3シール部、メタルシール部)が形成される。したがって、接続管101が接続された管継手10は、4箇所のシール部(シール部S1,S2,S3,S4)においてシールされる。   Further, the nut member 30 is screwed into the pipe joint main body 20, whereby the tapered surface 34 of the insertion hole 31 of the nut member 30 is joined to the tapered surface 24 of the end face of the pipe joint main body 20. As a result, a seal portion S3 (third seal portion, metal seal portion) is formed. Therefore, the pipe joint 10 to which the connection pipe 101 is connected is sealed at the four seal parts (seal parts S1, S2, S3, S4).

以上、説明したように、本実施の形態1によれば、接続管101の膨出部101aが、管継手本体20のテーパ面22と、ナット部材30のテーパ面34とに挟まれるとともに、ストレート孔面23に当接することで、シール部S1,S2,S4が形成される。また、ナット部材30のテーパ面34が、管継手本体20のテーパ面24に接合されることで、シール部S3が形成される。このため、シール能力の高い管継手、空気調和機、及び管継手に接続される接続管の製造方法を提供することができる。   As described above, according to the first embodiment, the bulging portion 101a of the connecting pipe 101 is sandwiched between the tapered surface 22 of the pipe joint main body 20 and the tapered surface 34 of the nut member 30, and is straight. By contacting the hole surface 23, seal portions S1, S2, S4 are formed. Further, the taper surface 34 of the nut member 30 is joined to the taper surface 24 of the pipe joint main body 20, thereby forming the seal portion S <b> 3. For this reason, the manufacturing method of the pipe joint with high sealing capability, an air conditioner, and the connection pipe connected to a pipe joint can be provided.

本実施の形態1において、冷媒の漏洩経路を考えた場合、図8を参照するとわかるように、2つの漏洩経路E1、E2が考えられる。詳しくは、漏洩経路E1は、冷媒が、接続管101の膨出部101aの外周に沿って移動して、ナット部材30の保持面32から漏洩する経路である。漏洩経路E2は、冷媒が、接続管101の膨出部101aの外周に沿って移動して、雄ネジ部25と雌ネジ部33との螺合部分から漏洩する経路である。冷媒が、漏洩経路E1を通って漏洩する場合、冷媒は、シール部S1、シール部S4、シール部S2の3箇所を通過する。一方、冷媒が、漏洩経路E2を通って漏洩する場合、冷媒は、シール部S1、シール部S4、シール部S3の3箇所を通過する。このため、これらのシール部S1〜S4のうちのいずれか一つに、傷等の凹凸に起因した冷媒の漏洩があってとしても、残りのシール部S1〜S4においてシールされているため、冷媒が、管継手10の外部へ漏洩することを防ぐことができる。   In the first embodiment, when considering the refrigerant leakage path, two leakage paths E1 and E2 are conceivable as can be seen with reference to FIG. Specifically, the leakage path E <b> 1 is a path through which the refrigerant moves along the outer periphery of the bulging portion 101 a of the connection pipe 101 and leaks from the holding surface 32 of the nut member 30. The leakage path E <b> 2 is a path through which the refrigerant moves along the outer periphery of the bulging portion 101 a of the connection pipe 101 and leaks from the screwed portion between the male screw portion 25 and the female screw portion 33. When the refrigerant leaks through the leakage path E1, the refrigerant passes through the three portions of the seal portion S1, the seal portion S4, and the seal portion S2. On the other hand, when the refrigerant leaks through the leakage path E2, the refrigerant passes through the three portions of the seal portion S1, the seal portion S4, and the seal portion S3. For this reason, even if any one of these seal portions S1 to S4 has leakage of the refrigerant due to irregularities such as scratches, it is sealed in the remaining seal portions S1 to S4. However, it can prevent leaking outside the pipe joint 10.

これに対して、管のフレア部を、管継手本体とナット部材とで挟み込む従来の管継手の場合、シール部が一つのみである。このため、フレア部と管継手本体とのシール部分に、傷等の凹凸があると、管継手のシール能力が低下し、冷媒が漏洩する。   On the other hand, in the case of the conventional pipe joint which pinches | interposes the flare part of a pipe | tube with a pipe joint main body and a nut member, there is only one seal part. For this reason, if there are irregularities such as scratches in the seal portion between the flare portion and the pipe joint main body, the seal capability of the pipe joint is reduced and the refrigerant leaks.

しかしながら、本実施の形態1に係る管継手10の場合、4つのシール部S1〜S4でシールされているため、いずれかのシール部分に傷等の凹凸があったとしても、冷媒が、管継手10の外部に漏洩することを好適に防ぐことができる。   However, in the case of the pipe joint 10 according to the first embodiment, since it is sealed with the four seal portions S1 to S4, even if there are irregularities such as scratches in any of the seal portions, the refrigerant is pipe joint. 10 can be suitably prevented from leaking outside.

また、本実施の形態1に係る管継手10は、管継手本体20とナット部材30とから構成されているため、シール能力を高めるために、管継手本体20とナット部材30との間に配置させるフロントフェルール及びバックフェルール等の部品を、別途使用する必要もない。このため、部品点数の増加によって、製造コストが高くなることもない。   Moreover, since the pipe joint 10 according to the first embodiment includes the pipe joint main body 20 and the nut member 30, the pipe joint 10 is disposed between the pipe joint main body 20 and the nut member 30 in order to increase the sealing capability. There is no need to separately use parts such as a front ferrule and a back ferrule. For this reason, the manufacturing cost does not increase due to the increase in the number of parts.

また、本実施の形態1に係る管継手10に接続される接続管101は、管部材110にアダプター60を嵌め込んだ上で、既存のフレア加工ツール(拡径部材)50を用いて形成される。このため、ユーザのフレア加工の熟練度に関わらず、容易に、膨出部101aが形成された接続管101を容易に得ることができる。また、形成された接続管101の加工精度のばらつきを抑えることができる。   The connecting pipe 101 connected to the pipe joint 10 according to the first embodiment is formed by using the existing flare processing tool (diameter expanding member) 50 after fitting the adapter 60 into the pipe member 110. The For this reason, it is possible to easily obtain the connecting pipe 101 in which the bulging portion 101a is formed regardless of the skill level of the user's flare processing. In addition, variations in processing accuracy of the formed connecting pipe 101 can be suppressed.

また、図9A及び図9Bに示すように、膨出部101aの−Z側の端部が、内向きに形成されていた場合等、膨出部の形状に多少のばらつきがあったとしても、本実施の形態1に係る管継手10に、容易に接続することができる。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 9A and 9B, even when the −Z side end of the bulging portion 101a is formed inward, even if there is some variation in the shape of the bulging portion, It can be easily connected to the pipe joint 10 according to the first embodiment.

以上、本発明の実施の形態1について説明したが、本発明は上記実施の形態1によって限定されるものではない。   Although the first embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the first embodiment.

例えば、実施の形態1では、管継手本体20の挿入孔21のテーパ面22の傾斜角度θ1を、45°として例示した。しかしながら、これに限らず、傾斜角度θ1は、45°とは異なる傾斜角度であってもよい。ただし、接続管101の膨出部101aの形成のしやすさの観点から、傾斜角度θ1の好ましい角度の範囲は、43°〜47°であり、さらに好ましくは、本実施の形態で示した通り、45°である。   For example, in Embodiment 1, the inclination angle θ1 of the tapered surface 22 of the insertion hole 21 of the pipe joint body 20 is exemplified as 45 °. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the inclination angle θ1 may be an inclination angle different from 45 °. However, from the viewpoint of easy formation of the bulging portion 101a of the connection pipe 101, the preferable angle range of the inclination angle θ1 is 43 ° to 47 °, and more preferably as shown in the present embodiment. 45 °.

また、実施の形態1では、ナット部材30の挿入孔31のテーパ面34の傾斜角度θ2を、45°として例示した。しかしながら、これに限らず、傾斜角度θ2は、45°とは異なる傾斜角度であってもよい。ただし、接続管101の膨出部101aの形成のしやすさの観点から、傾斜角度θ2の好ましい角度の範囲は、43°〜47°であり、さらに好ましくは、本実施の形態で示した通り、45°である。   In the first embodiment, the inclination angle θ2 of the tapered surface 34 of the insertion hole 31 of the nut member 30 is exemplified as 45 °. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the inclination angle θ2 may be an inclination angle different from 45 °. However, from the viewpoint of ease of formation of the bulging portion 101a of the connecting pipe 101, the preferable angle range of the inclination angle θ2 is 43 ° to 47 °, and more preferably as shown in the present embodiment. 45 °.

また、実施の形態1では、管継手本体20の端面に形成されたテーパ面24の傾斜角度θ3を、45°として例示した。しかしながら、これに限らず、傾斜角度θ3は、45°とは異なる傾斜角度であってもよい。ただし、ナット部材30の挿入孔31のテーパ面34の傾斜角度θ2と同等が好ましい。   In the first embodiment, the inclination angle θ3 of the tapered surface 24 formed on the end surface of the pipe joint body 20 is exemplified as 45 °. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the inclination angle θ3 may be an inclination angle different from 45 °. However, the inclination angle θ2 of the tapered surface 34 of the insertion hole 31 of the nut member 30 is preferably equal to that.

実施の形態2.
また、図10に示すように、膨出部101aが形成された接続管101に代えて、フレア部201a(拡径部)が形成された接続管201を、本実施の形態の管継手10に接続することも可能である。この場合、フレア部201aが、ナット部材30の挿入孔21に形成されたテーパ面24と、管継手本体20の外周面に形成されたテーパ面34とに挟まれることで、接続管201は、管継手10に接続される。したがって、既にフレア部201aが形成された接続管201に接続されている既存の管継手から、本実施の形態に係る管継手10に互換することができる。また、接続管に接続されている管継手を交換する際に、ユーザは、本実施の形態に係る管継手10と、既存の管継手とを、適宜、選択することができる。
Embodiment 2. FIG.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 10, instead of the connecting pipe 101 in which the bulging part 101 a is formed, a connecting pipe 201 in which a flare part 201 a (expanded diameter part) is formed is used as the pipe joint 10 of the present embodiment. It is also possible to connect. In this case, the flare portion 201a is sandwiched between the tapered surface 24 formed in the insertion hole 21 of the nut member 30 and the tapered surface 34 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the pipe joint body 20, so that the connecting pipe 201 is Connected to the pipe joint 10. Therefore, the existing pipe joint that is already connected to the connection pipe 201 in which the flare 201a is already formed can be compatible with the pipe joint 10 according to the present embodiment. Moreover, when exchanging the pipe joint connected to the connection pipe, the user can appropriately select the pipe joint 10 according to the present embodiment and the existing pipe joint.

実施の形態3.
また、上記実施の形態1では、管継手本体20が、シール部S4を形成するためのストレート孔面23を有している。しかしながら、これに限らず、図11A及び図11Bに示す実施の形態3に係る管継手10Aのように、ストレート孔面23を有さなくともよい。この場合でも、3つのシール部S1,S2,S3でシールされることで、冷媒が、管継手10の外部に漏洩することを好適に防ぐことができる。ただし、上記実施の形態1に係る管継手10の場合(ストレート孔面23を有する場合)は、4つのシール部S1,S2,S3,S4でシールされるため、シール能力の観点からは、ストレート孔面23を有する方が好ましい。
Embodiment 3 FIG.
Moreover, in the said Embodiment 1, the pipe joint main body 20 has the straight hole surface 23 for forming seal part S4. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the straight hole surface 23 may not be provided like the pipe joint 10A according to Embodiment 3 shown in FIGS. 11A and 11B. Even in this case, it is possible to suitably prevent the refrigerant from leaking to the outside of the pipe joint 10 by being sealed by the three seal portions S1, S2, and S3. However, in the case of the pipe joint 10 according to the first embodiment (when the straight hole surface 23 is provided), since it is sealed by the four seal portions S1, S2, S3, and S4, from the viewpoint of the sealing capability, the straight It is preferable to have a hole surface 23.

実施の形態4.
また、実施の形態1では、シール部S4を形成するためのストレート孔面23を、管継手本体20が有している。しかしながら、これに限らず、図12A及び図12Bに示す実施の形態3に係る管継手10Bのように、ストレート孔面35を、ナット部材30が有していてもよい。この場合、接続管101の膨出部101aが、管継手本体20のテーパ面22と、ナット部材30のテーパ面34とに挟まれるとともに、ナット部材30のストレート孔面35の内周面に当接することで、シール部S1,S2,S4が形成される。また、ナット部材30のテーパ面36が、管継手本体20のテーパ面22に接合されることで、シール部S3(メタルシール部)が形成される。
Embodiment 4 FIG.
Moreover, in Embodiment 1, the pipe joint main body 20 has the straight hole surface 23 for forming seal part S4. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the nut member 30 may have the straight hole surface 35 as in the pipe joint 10B according to Embodiment 3 shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B. In this case, the bulging portion 101 a of the connecting pipe 101 is sandwiched between the tapered surface 22 of the pipe joint body 20 and the tapered surface 34 of the nut member 30, and contacts the inner peripheral surface of the straight hole surface 35 of the nut member 30. By contact, seal portions S1, S2, and S4 are formed. Moreover, the taper surface 36 of the nut member 30 is joined to the taper surface 22 of the pipe joint main body 20, thereby forming a seal portion S <b> 3 (metal seal portion).

また、本実施の形態1〜4では、冷凍サイクルの冷媒に、ジフルオロメタン(CH)からなるR32を用いた例が示されている。しかしながら、これに限らず、冷媒は、HFO1234yf(ハイドロフルオロオレフィン)であってもよいし、R32と、HFO1234yfとの混合冷媒であってもよい。また、R32やHFO1234yfなどは、地球温暖化の対策のために、従来の冷媒(例えば、R22、R410Aなど)に代わる代替フロンとして用いられているが、従来の冷媒とは異なり、可燃性を有する場合が多い。本実施の形態の管継手10では、上述したように、シール能力が高いため、可燃性を有する代替フロンを用いた場合においても、空気調和機100を安全に使用することができる。Further, in the fourth embodiment, the refrigerant of the refrigeration cycle, an example of using the R32 consisting of difluoromethane (CH 2 F 2) is shown. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the refrigerant may be HFO1234yf (hydrofluoroolefin) or a mixed refrigerant of R32 and HFO1234yf. In addition, R32, HFO1234yf, and the like are used as alternative chlorofluorocarbons to replace conventional refrigerants (for example, R22, R410A, etc.) for measures against global warming. However, unlike conventional refrigerants, they are flammable. There are many cases. In the pipe joint 10 of the present embodiment, as described above, since the sealing ability is high, the air conditioner 100 can be used safely even when an alternative chlorofluorocarbon is used.
